Good question.
If its not required will it be allowed? Would it be beneficial?

Re: Mammoth Sniper Challenge - Park City, KY
Wait, just for clarification, is the wind class the Friday before the match, or the Friday before the practice?
If its before the match, I will probably attend.

And Katie!!!! I haven't beaten her in almost a year now. The only tactical match I haven't lost to her was long range and now I'm gonna lose that. Good thing I'm going for the experience and to have fun. Even better that I have no pride left for her to take. J/K guys. It's great to see the future of our sport and to know that they are fine representatives. Counting down the days to the practice weekend. Hope to see many of you there.
ETA: I can't lie. She has already beaten me at a long range match also. I have nothing left.

Re: Mammoth Sniper Challenge - Park City, KY
Okay, guys we are about a month away. I will be at the Fort benning 3 gun this weekend but will be back on Monday to answer any questions you guys have about the match.
I will answer questions to a certain point but will not give information on the stage designs.
If you have any questions ask away. I will answer them to try and help any one out for the match. I will be able answer them via phone internet over the weekend.
Remember there are no dumb questions, the only dumb question is the one that wasn't asked. The worst that can happen is I won't give you the answer your looking for.
My goal is to try and make everyone enjoy the match. I know that it is impossible for that to happen, but my goal is to make 90% happy and really enjoy themselves. I am just being realistic
because some will say it was to cold, there wasn't enough time to shoot the stage, can you believe he had us crawl into a hide site to shoot, then the best of all(my gun is capable of shooting 1/4 MOA I DON'T WHY I CAN'T HIT ANYTHING).

This has been covered a few pages back, see the "Tactical Lawn Chair"
It boils down to this... Whatever you start with on the first stage, you must finish all stages with"
I you want to bring a pack, cooler, chair, or sherpa and leave it in the staging area then that is fine. But if you wear your pack on the first stage, then you have to wear it on all stages.

That is fine. You can carry a pack, chair, kitchen sink, whatever you want from stage to stage. But once your RO says "GO" and your on the clock, whatever you carry with you on that stage must be with you on all stages.
So bring a pack or chair or whatever from stage to stage.

Just got home from the practice weekend. What a great time! The weather could have been a little better, but the shooting and socializing was great. Joe and his crew really do it RIGHT! Special thanks to Joe and Ryan for helping all of us newbies learn to read the wind and spot trace better. Your help was greatly appreciated! I can't wait for the match!
